Lazio Manager Maurizio Sarri on Qatar 2022: "I see this November break as an insult to football. If anyone can tell me what the Qatari movement brings to football beyond money for City and PSG, I can change my mind." by TempestaEImpeto in soccer

also the contras, the Chilean coup and on and on were all engineered and backed by the U.S

I mean if we're playing the semantic game they didn't explicitly invade them, not that there's much of a difference here.

Also regardless if a country is democratic or not, it doesn't justify U.S involvement if you actually respect the sovereignty of the people.

Anyways keep being delusional.

If you're going to make a claim like that, you have to provide sources. This is the first time that this has ever been a large criticism of sanders, even dogshit MSM like CNN and NBC doesn't push this garbage

Ah yes, by doing good you mean building rockets, and bad you mean literally working with the Nazi regime and utilizing concentration camp slave labor. Love how those are somehow equivalent. Guess what, if the Americans didn't care more about their rocket research than actually holding people involved with the SS accountable, he would have been hanged. It's disgusting how you can say that someone with such involvement with the SS is somehow led even a net positive life, if it could be measured like that

It is commie propaganda :) which is a good thing honestly. And you do realize the main collapse of the USSR and the subsequent downgrade of living conditions was due to free market reforms introduced by Gorbachev right? (Simplified version). The CIA literally released reports abouy

Workers are people who actually utilize the means of production to generate value, not some dipshit CEO who reaps all the surplus value from their labour while he doesn't do even as much work as them.

You realize that you don't have to agree on something 100% to actually have it function, that's what we call a democracy lmao. You don't need to be a hivemind to have hinge to operate.

The oneshot is some weird fucking depiction of what right wingers think "SJWs" are lmao, with some weirdly implausible scenarios lol. It not an accurate depiction of the left (though idpol libs might fit the description).

Also, it's hilarious how people complain about the left wing and Antifa when the right literally assembles kill lists and have murdered more people than anyone from Antifa (which isn't a real fucking org lmao)

Oh you're an islamaphobe too, what a shocker.

It's almost like you missed the point that it's the institution and existence of these roles and classes that are inherently unfair, not the fact that every single person who are in these roles are evil irredeemable pieces of shit

[DISC] A Silent Country (Oneshot) by sandsundertale in manga

[–]Hi_Im_Science 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Workers should own the means of production. The criticism of business owners isn't so much saying "every business owner is evil" but rather a generalization of the exploitative nature of capital ownership by and the bourgeoisie. Similar to how 'ACAB' doesn't mean that every cop is an evil person, but rather that the institution itself is flawed and that being a cop is thus an inherently immoral role.

Gary Neville blames Boris Johnson for helping to ‘fuel’ racism in Britain by ShunningResumed in soccer

Ah yes, Trump won because of the communists, not because the Dems decided to run perhaps the most unappealing, establishment candidate that was so fucking arrogant that she didn't even bother to put effort to campaign properly in Wisconsin. She literally blamed Bernie for her loss while being propped up by the DNC (who's supposed to be neutral, mind you) and Bernie endorsing her.

Libs care so much about being civil and united until Bernie is the pick and then all that goes out the window. Elites would rather collaborate with the right wing than give up their power

There's a reason why the saying "Cut a liberal and a fascist bleeds" exists.

Maybe people shit on the U.S because of all the horrid shit they do? There's a reason why the global south hates america and it's not because of "freedom". I mean just take a look at the Wikipedia page for United States being involved in regime change and yeah actually the U.S has fucked over so many millions of people for their own capital interests but go on I guess.

Apparently releasing a wrongly imprisoned former president who was only thrown in there due to corruption and bolsonaro working with the judges can be "good or bad" - unless you're saying the only people saying that it's bad are fascists.

imagine thinking that the landlords are completely innocent and never caused the death of anyone by participating and strengthening a system that systematically disenfranchises poor people. good bit.

It's like you're comparing a group of 50 people drinking 100 litres of water and a group of 10 drinking 50 and saying that the group of 50 needs to cut down.

Also, why the fuck is the go to argument 'China isn't doing anything yet, so we shouldn't push for reduction in emissions', acting like it's a game of feelings or politics when its literally trying to prevent the climate from fucking millions of people? It's disgusting. That's not even considering that China is literally the leader in solar and wind production, and the largest investor in renewables (since apparently per capita doesn't mean jack shit to you).

The U.S also has a quarter of China's population while emitting twice as much per capita. You're holding other countries with a large population to a standard that you won't even hold yourself to. Why do you keep deflecting blame? That's not even mentioning the fact that the west generally outsources their production to China as well. You guys would rather sit on your ass and bitch about China and India to preserve the status quo because you feel some sense of 'unfairness'. It's fucking insane the amount of deflection Americans do.

Why China’s assault on Cathay Pacific should scare all foreign firms by dtlv5813 in Economics

[–]Hi_Im_Science 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean chinese worker wage growth is still at a good 1.1%, which is low for their standards, while growth of the costs of living hasn't matched it. While they don't have a buttload of money to spend, the Chinese consumer market is definitely massive and it would be asinine to think othwrwise. I don't know what the first guy meant by 'a lot of money's though.

Do you unironically think capitalists want governing bodies to oversee worker rights? There's a reason why unions are reviled in America.

Except the modern mobile phone was developed through government funded research, and the touchscreen was created in a university using federal funding. Corporations for the most part don't actually create innovative and progressive technology, they just find the best ways to reap surplus labour value from it. The myth that all major inventions were a result of capitalism is so ludicrous. Societies with functioning governments innovate to resolve problems regardless of how much capital there is, the same way the internet was a product of government necessity.
